If you deal online in memberships and subscription products and want to manage them efficiently and effortlessly, your hunt for a solution stops here. The Subscriptions and Recurring Payments extension from aheadWorks Co. is for you if you sell products that are purchased with certain regularity, e.g., magazines, software licenses, bottled water, memberships, pills, detergents, etc.

Sounds appealing? Well, read on to find out all that is in store for you.

This freedom and flexibility allows customers to save time or budget their periodic requirements in a better way.

Transparent and customizable user interface
The extremely user-friendly customer interface gives them their subscription statistics and manage their subscriptions to various products. Customers are also sent alerts on progress of the subscription order.

I can use the Magento API to add products to a cart and the like. With this plugin, can I also add subscribable products to a cart and process the order normally? I assume it doesn't add functionality to manage subscriptions for a user via the API.

Answer: 
Yes, you can add subscription products to cart and process your orders normally. The extension just offers a new kind of product which is defined as 'subscription' one.

Answer: 
If I understand you correctly, you are interested in subscriptions paid by someone other than the recipient. This can be achieved with the current version of the module by stating a required shipping address at the checkout. In case there is a misunderstanding and you are looking for a different functionality, please contact our support team either via phone, live chat or email, we would be glad to provide the required information.
